Returning Nubie
« on: May 25, 2013, 12:07:47 am »
Hi all I am trying to return to game after an extended leave. I played for a few months a couple years ago and never got much farther than chopping rocks a little crafting and a run out of Quarentine ( very scary at that time by the way lol ) Tried to return a few months ago and my computer wouldn't run it but things are running well kinda. The problem is first when I tried to do the nubie craft a pick quest my items wouldn't lock into the crafting window, after many tries I got that to work, then when trying to run south toquarentine like recommended the road ran out and then after going by a Big building that dosn't interact I ran a bit more on a new road and the screen went black and sent me to a revival on a lake and now every time I run from there the same thing happens. Sorry if this is a bit long but I really like this game and would like to play it again :-[

heya if you look on afterwiki you should find more info on how to get out of QA1 as a newbie, sounds like you might be hitting the forcefield and get sent back to revival? hope you manage to get out safe! players are around from time to time... if i see you around I'll help as much as i can, but my time is limited as i can only game a few hours a day since I'm still recovering from an eye operation,, best of luck to you and nice to see a player returning to AWS. :-) p.s sounds like you need to put stuff in storage first to craft.

My map may here you get around a bit easier: https://my.afterworld.deelogic.net/survival/knowledge-database/c211-world-map/

Also, your signature does not show a "last seen in" ... so you might need to tell us more about what stage you are at.
For example - you may still be in the tutorial - in which case, the building you are at is probably Surgut and until you are out of the tutorial it will not open the door. And the tutorial likes to ensure you do not get lost ... so it brings you back  to a revive if you wonder too far from the path.

The screen shots of the tutorial: https://my.afterworld.deelogic.net/survival/newcomers-corner/first-task-newcomer-tutorial/msg3976/#msg3976 might help you if you have lost your gold-tutorial path map hints.

If you are considering Citizenship ... this my post may help with your choice making: https://my.afterworld.deelogic.net/survival/newcomers-corner/rewards-for-gaining-citizenship/msg4048/#msg4048

However, there is also the free newcomer clones to take into consideration ... have a look  at my post here regarding that : https://my.afterworld.deelogic.net/survival/newcomers-corner/newcomer-free-50-additional-clones/

Welcome back to AW!

If you're still in the tutorial (I'm guessing you are based on your description of being returned when you get too far) you need to head mostly north, not south. Where did you get the recommendation to run south? If you open your game map by pressing 'm' you should see a line on it showing you the path to the end, though this is sometimes bugged.
